After listening to Qin Mufeng's explanation, she seemed to smile, but then she didn't seem to smile.

The corners of her straight mouth slightly turned upward in an inconspicuous arc, and Yun Xi's eyes were so cold that it was scary.

Qin Mufeng knew that she was angry, but he didn't think that he was wrong, nor did he realize that there was anything wrong with what he just said.

"Are you still thinking that those people are here for you?"

Qin Mufeng was startled and replied with some uncertainty: "Isn't it?"

Yun Xi suddenly felt a little tired, even more tired than when the Ruanjin Powder had worn off.

She thought, this is the wrong love and the wrong time.

"Yes, of course." After all, without you, why would Liu Ruyan pursue her so fiercely and make such elaborate calculations?

Qin Mufeng suddenly became a little unsure after hearing her affirmative answer with a hint of meaning.

If those people today were not coming for him, but for her...

No, just thinking about it made him feel chills on his back.

If the other party is really going after her, then the time I wasted on those pretending to be calm analysis...

Qin Mufeng felt a little tight in his chest, so tight that he couldn't breathe. If he had to describe the feeling, it would be like being hit hard with a sap.

He tried in a hoarse voice: "You must be very tired after working for so long. You go and rest for a while. I'll call you when he wakes up."

"No need, I'm not tired."

Qin Mufeng wanted to say something else, but just as he was about to speak, Qin Yi came back with large and small bags of medicinal materials.

"give it to me."

Yun Xi took the medicine directly from his hand, turned around and went downstairs to borrow the medicine from the kitchen.

Her wrist was held by a big warm hand, and she frowned impatiently and looked at him.

"Just let Qin Yi and the others do this little thing."

When Qin saw that the atmosphere was not right, he hurriedly agreed: "Master is right, just take care of this small matter of decoction. How can I bring trouble to you, Mistress?"

Qin Mufeng gave him an appreciative look with satisfaction. He was worthy of being a person he had trained by himself.

After going through such a long process, Yun Xi was indeed tired. After hearing what they all said, she didn't force it, nor did she notice Qin Yi's sudden change of address to her.

After handing her medicine back to Qin Yi, she gave some details that needed attention.

Qin Mufeng remembered the wrong words she had said before, and when he saw her looking extremely tired and unwilling to speak, it felt like there was a thorn in his heart, and it hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.

"I'll have someone bring you a chair to sit and wait."

"No,"

There was an obvious hurt in Qin Mufeng's eyes, which shocked her heart. The unknown pain before seemed to have found the answer at this moment.

"I'm indeed a little tired, so I'll go back to my room and rest first."

Qin Mufeng's mood seemed to have improved at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the uneasy feeling in his heart had not changed at all.

For some reason, he always felt like something was quietly changing, and this feeling made him start to feel panicked for no reason.

Qin Mufeng looked back at the closed door, and his deep pupils shrank severely.

"Find out his origins as soon as possible."

A mechanical response came from the empty corridor.

"yes."

There seemed to be a slight fluctuation in the air, but it seemed like nothing happened.

After Yun Xi returned to her room, she was not in a hurry to rest. Instead, she lay on the bed and thought carefully about the conversation she had just had with Qin Mufeng.

She didn't know if she was influenced by the man's eyes that looked very similar to Yun Long's, which made her preconceptions of him as a good person.

She found that she could not agree with Qin Mufeng's words about whether he was an enemy or a friend.

But from Qin Mufeng's perspective, what he did seemed to be right.

Perhaps it was a side effect of Ruanjin Powder, so Yun Xi fell asleep amid random thoughts, and when she woke up again, it was completely dark outside.

The oil lamp on the corner of the table emitted a faint light, showing the careful care of the lamplighter. The silver-white moonlight filled the room, making the whole room ambiguous and warm.

Her stomach growled twice at the right time, and Yun Xi's brain was confused for a while before returning to reality.

She stood up and opened the door. Qin Er, who looked sleepy, stood up straight in an instant, his laziness gone.

"Mother."

"...Why are you here?" And who is the mistress? Is it her who is calling her?

"Master asked us to take turns keeping watch to ensure your safety."

Okay, it's really her.

"I'm fine. You go and rest. I'll go see the young hero."

Yun Xi said and walked towards the room not far away.

Qin Er thought of his master's instructions and hurriedly followed him.

"I'm not sleepy, my subordinate. If you have any instructions, I can run an errand or something."

Yun Xi didn't think much about it and just thought that he wanted to help her.

As he was about to reach the door, there was a burst of urgent coughing from a man inside.

Yun Xi knocked on the door, and after receiving a response, she opened the door and went in.

She naturally asked about his situation, took his pulse carefully, and then felt the temperature of his forehead.

Seeing the other person looking at me with a surprised look on his face, he later realized that he was living in an ancient feudal society.

She "coughed" twice in embarrassment, and then explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just want to confirm that your injury can be treated appropriately, and there is no other meaning."

The man nodded his head, feeling a little dizzy.

"By the way, I haven't asked for my benefactor's name yet."

"...Long Jiu."

"My name is Yun Xi. Thanks to you, young hero, for saving me today. Don't worry, I will definitely heal your injury as soon as possible."

"Besides, you can tell me if you need anything."

With that said, she wrote a prescription and handed it to Qin Er, asking him to grab the medicine.

"When the road is uneven, fighting for justice is what martial arts practitioners of our generation should do. Miss Yun does not need to have any psychological burden."

Yun Xi looked into his eyes and felt a little dazed for a moment.

It's so similar. No wonder she felt familiar with him the first time she saw him.

"Your eyes look exactly like my elder brother." She thought so and said it.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Long Jiu took advantage of the moment of coughing to calmly lower his eyes, covering up the flash of panic in his eyes.

Seeing that he was coughing too hard, Yun Xi stood up and poured a glass of water for him: "Drink some water to suppress it."

"Thanks."

"You go to bed early and I won't disturb you."

As soon as Yun Xi closed the door, she turned around and looked into Qin Mufeng's dark eyes.

"Ah! I'm scared to death! Why don't you make any sound when you walk?"

Qin Mufeng forced down the turbulent emotions in his heart and said with a smile: "Are you hungry, madam? I have someone prepare some of your favorite dishes."

Yun Xi's stomach rumbled twice in unison, and her ears warmed up, showing off her daughter's shyness.

"I'm really hungry."

She followed Qin Mufeng to his room, and the smell of the food instantly dispelled her previous shyness.

"Have you eaten? Do you want to join us?"
